The polygons are geometric figures that are closed and you can see in two dimentions.
The word "Poligon" means "various sides", by this reason is that when you see the names of different polygons, generally you can notice that begin with the number of sides and ends with the word "gon". For example, hexagon, heptagon, decagon and more. These figures should always have three or more sides.
The elements of a polygon are sides, vertices, diagonals and angles that can be internal or external.

The triangle and the pentagon are types of polygons according to their sides. Both are geometric figures. But, a triangle has three sides while a pentagon has five sides.
